Graven LA Week of Feb. 10

Students will read "Blancaflor" from Treasures Unit 3, Week 4.  The main focus will be on finding the theme of stories, as well as similes and metaphors.  In writing students will continue to work on their Dream Job fictional narratives by including dialogue and working through the writing process.  Students will also learn about linking verbs.  The spelling words for the week follow the pattern of consonant + le syllables, like in saddle, bubble, and medal. Students should have also taken their first Reading Counts quiz of the 3rd quarter by now.  Students completed official book contracts last week for their second book choice to stay on pace for the quarter.  The second Reading Counts quiz is due by Feb. 28.  All students should read at least 30 minutes daily!
